Another Coupon Case.

Judge Bond, sitting as the United States
court for the eastern district of Virginia, in
Baltimore, last Saturday, rendered another
decision involving the Virginia coupons. A
Philadelphia drummer named katz, in De-
cember last offered the coupons in pay
ment for license to sell goods by sample in
Virginia. The treasurer OF Richmond re-
fused to accept the coupons. Katz never
theless went on selling his goods. He was
arrested charged With selling goods without
q license. Judge Bond dismissed the case
on the strength Of the decision rendered by
him on February2. in which he declared
that the acts Of 1885 SO of the Virginia leg
ialature were unconstitutional, las they
impair the coupon act that provides that
coupons shall be received in payment of all
public dues and taxes. Virginia has made
the coupons as much OF legal tender for
public dues and taxes as y greenback." Mr.
W. Il. Meredith, special counsel for the
State, announces that there would be no
further action taken in these coupon cases
until after the decision of the United States
supreme court, before which argument was
appointed on appeal from Judge Bond on
March Z. The Richmond city sergeant left
for home without his prisoner, and it is gem
orally understood that the informers will
get no money. The policemen expect that
their Zee for information will he paid by the
Indemnity Board out of the State Treasury.

mt Boston.

A riot occurred in East Cambridge, Bos-
ton, yesterday afternoon as result of the
recent street-car ''tie.up" A large crowd
of strikers and their sympathizers gathered
on Main street, Cambridgeport, and as the
various cars of the Cambridge line passed
the conductors and drivers were hooted as
''scabs" AT $50 p. m, there was great
mob at tho junction of the Webster street
Line with that on Main street, and, as car
turned into Webster avenue, the mob began
hu.ling bricks and stones at the car and it's
occupants By the time the car got through
the crowd it was q complete wreck. Each
succeeding car was similarly treated until
no less than five cars had been badly dam
aged. Then the police were telephoned for
aud within twenty minutes large force OF
officers appeared on the scene. The mob
had by this time been worked up to a high
degree of excitement and when the officers
attempted to disperse the crowd they met
with a determined resistance. Bricks and
stones were thrown ut the police, and many
of the officers were injured. The police
then charged the mob with drawn revolvers
and it instantly scattered in all directions.
About dozen CT the strikers were arrested
and conveyed to police station. little
later the mob assembled again further down
the avenue and wrecked another car. The po-
lice, reinforced by mounted squad, charged
the crowd on the double quick" and the
mob dispersed along the side streets after dis
charging volley of bricks at the police.
The missiles took effect in at least dozen
cases, and as many officers were more or
less seriously injured. Another lot OF pris-
oners was taken, and the station house
was filed with those arrested None OF
those injured are thought TO be fatally hurt.
There was no further trouble after the last
effective dispersion OF the mob on Webster
avenue In South Boston there were few

MONDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 81.

OF ALL the cities in the country it is most
natural apd becoming that Alexandria
should observe Washipgton's birthday as a
holiday. To other cities the memory OF
"the Father of his country" is held in graft
tude, respect and reverence, but here, there
ara added to these feelings others which
make Alexandria the one peculiar CITY
where the celebration OF "the ODD" should
never be omitted. Alexandria was WASH

was the personal acquaintance ana 1rend
of the grand and great grandfaihers OF many
of the people of the city, and it was in his
daiiy association with them that he exhibit
ed some of those frailties Of human nature
which, by removing him from the list OF
gods. endearet. him still more TO men, by
proving that he was one of them. Many OF
his collateral descendants still reside here,
and his step grandson, Mr.. Gusts, the
child of Mt. Vernon" yet lives in the
memory Of the present generation as reg
ular participant in the former celebrations
of the day. No, Alexandria is too intimate
" bound up with the personal history OF
Washington for her citizens ever to omit
the celebration of his birthday.

JUDGE BOND has rendered another decis
ion TO the effect that the tender of Virginia
coupons for Virginia dues is equivalent to
the payment Of such dues. Such decision
is in accordance with decision Of the U. s.
Supreme Court But the Virginia authorl-

coupons. They will learn, but not until the
State has been put to still greater expense,
that the U. S Supreme Court is the highest
court in the land, and to respect its dec's-
